ACME Partners Establishes Ironvale Industrial Services Platform

DALLAS (June 12, 2026) — ACME Partners, a growth-oriented private equity firm, today announced the formation of Ironvale Industrial Services, a specialty industrial maintenance and repair services platform. Redoak Mechanical, a Texas-based provider of industrial mechanical maintenance and repair services, anchors the platform as Ironvale's foundational investment.

Founded in 2004, Redoak Mechanical provides mission-critical mechanical maintenance, emergency repair, and equipment installation services to manufacturers, processors, and distribution operators across Texas and Oklahoma. The company has built its reputation on a deep bench of skilled tradespeople, with technician tenure that leads its market and a safety record that consistently outperforms industry benchmarks.

“We have spent twenty years building a company where skilled tradespeople want to spend their careers, and we were not going to hand that culture to just anyone,” said the founder of Redoak Mechanical. “ACME took the time to understand how this business actually runs, and they showed us a plan for growth that strengthens what we have built rather than replacing it.”

The market for specialty industrial maintenance services is large, growing, and highly fragmented, with meaningful benefits to scale in technician recruiting, safety programs, and customer coverage. ACME Partners will support Ironvale's growth through strategic acquisitions and organic initiatives, including investment in a professional go-to-market engine and expanded service-line capabilities. The platform is actively seeking additional partnerships with founder-led industrial services companies across the central United States.

“Reindustrialization and automation are driving consistent, recurring demand for the skilled trades that keep American facilities running, and we see a clear opportunity to build a leader in this space,” said Jordan Avery, Managing Partner at ACME Partners. “Ironvale is exactly the kind of platform we love to build: a foundational company with an exceptional culture, a large and fragmented market, and a management team that wants to go build something significant.”
